Quick Summary

AREAL20417 S22 receptacle assembly provides rugged 200A power distribution for industrial enclosures. Engineers often struggle with wiring crowding, unreliable terminations, and maintenance downtime in busy panels. Certified for NEC/CEC standards and NEMA 3R ratings in ordinary/non-hazardous locations, its copper-free aluminum housing resists corrosion while a spring-door design simplifies access. This combination supports scalable, reliable power in control cabinets and MCCs while aligning with cost- and safety-conscious procurement. With four-wire, four-pole configuration and 2-1/2-inch trade size, it accommodates large conductors and simplifies field wiring. Its 50–400 Hz range covers broad industrial applications, from general manufacturing to process automation, reducing the need for multiple adapters. The copper-free aluminum construction also contributes to lighter panels and easier handling during installation and maintenance. Support materials include specification sheets and installation instructions to streamline procurement.

It supports a 2-1/2-inch trade size and a 0.687-inch wire well, enabling straightforward wiring within standard control panel practices. The mechanical lug termination and spring-door receptacle simplify assembly, while NEC/CEC compliance helps ensure regulatory compatibility across typical industrial installations.
Key specifications include a 200A amperage rating, voltage rating of 600 Vac / 250 Vdc, and a frequency range of 50 to 400 Hz. The configuration is four-wire, four-pole with Style 1 grounding, implemented in copper-free aluminum. This combination supports robust power distribution for large enclosures while maintaining compatibility with Arktite AREAL systems and NEC/CEC standards.
Yes. The unit is rated for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and carries a NEMA 3R enclosure rating, indicating suitability for weather-resilient installations when installed in suitable panels or cabinets. It complies with NEC/CEC standards, making it appropriate for both indoor non-hazardous environments and protected outdoor enclosures in demanding industrial settings.
The receptacle features a spring door and mechanical lug termination, which streamline wiring and reduce installation time. The 2-1/2-inch trade size and 0.687-inch wire well facilitate field wiring for larger conductors, while the copper-free aluminum construction lowers panel weight. These design choices translate to quicker commissioning, easier maintenance, and fewer field errors in busy manufacturing environments.
Official resources include the Eaton Arktite AREAL specification sheet, the IF853 installation instruction sheets, and catalog pages for Arktite 200A plugs, receptacles, and connectors. These documents provide detailed installation steps, wiring diagrams, and compatibility notes to support procurement, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance in industrial facilities.
